Been offered a genuine Suzuki C/F front mudguard. looks really nice, inside photos show no repairs and the Suzuki stickers still in place.
Trouble is some mong has rattle-canned the vertical legs in black paint, leaving only the curvy top in bare C/F.
The guy selling it says that the paint is just sprayed over the original finish, no primer or sanding... should come off easy without damaging the original finish underneath.
But what do you reckon my chances are? Sanding it is going to ruin the C/F lacquer surely? I assume it is lacquered?
Chemicals?
Slowly scraping with a plastic scraper?
Any ideas?
It is cheap (cheaper than chinese copy stuff cheap) so it's very tempting...
